    A WRONG AND A RIGHT KIND OF EXPERIENCE

    In regards to the debate as to whom of the democratic

    candidates has the most experience, the question or argument should be

    -- to whom of the Democrats or Republicans has the RIGHT KIND OF

    EXPERIENCE.

    As we all know, there is a right kind of experience and a wrong kind of

    experiene. Do we really want to elect some one with Geroge Bush's or

    Hillary Clinton's wrong kind Experience that so ineptley got us into the

    Iraq War....

    -- Or, do we want to elect some one like Barack Obama to lead us the

    next four years, who has wisely and judiciously shown by rejecting the

    Iraq war from the beginning, that he does have the Right kind of

    Experience -- the Right Stuff to lead us forward the next four years.

    And it is only someone who has shown from the beginning, this Right kind

    of Experience & Wisdom, that can lead us with forethought and foresight,

    out of this mess, which we call the Iraq War.
